Decided to turn on my bloom lights on my Optic 2 Gen 3 LED which incrediblely increased the temp so lucky 🍀 I have a carbon filter from ac infinity “4 and a inline fan from Vivosun which really work great to suck the stagnant hot air out of my 32”x32”x72” tent. Other then that have been feeding these girl Urb& liquid seaweed and they seem to be loving it. Would love to make a compost tea soon.

FERMAKOR BARREL MIX – BASE IN USE (Testing on the Fantasy Feast girl we pulled out of another diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/274722-grow-journal-by-yan402 ) (FERMAKOR BASE SYSTEM KOH VERSION diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/278391-grow-journal-by-yan402) (Urea & Micros on the way — first week running without them) 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 💧 30 L Barrel – Current Working Mix 🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶💧🍶 Step 1 – Calcium Nitrate (Part A) 7 L warm water (~35–40 °C) → added 45 g Calcinit, stirred until fully clear. That’s the calcium + nitrogen backbone for the feed. Step 2 – FERMAKOR PK Base (Part B) 15 L water in the main barrel → added 30 ml FERMAKOR PK Concentrate, mixed well. This forms the main P + K part of the formula. Step 3 – Combine Solutions Slowly poured the Calcinit mix into the barrel while stirring — no reaction, still crystal clear. That confirms the mix is stable and precipitation-free. 🌿 Step 4 – FPJ / FFJ Batch Added 30 ml homemade FPJ (fish + veg batch) ≈ 1 ml/L. Color shifted to a light-amber tone — looks alive and active. 🍋 Step 5 – Citric Acid Balance Added 1 tsp citric acid after everything was blended to fine-tune pH and help chelate micros later on. 📦 Step 6 – Top Up & Check Filled to the 30 L mark with plain water → pH tested with drops, showing yellow-green — roughly 5.8 – 6.0 range. Nice clean look, stable smell, no residue. 💧 Current Base Ingredients (Active Mix) Warm Water ≈ 22 L total Calcinit 45 g → N + Ca foundation FERMAKOR PK Base 30 ml → P + K support Citric Acid 1 tsp → Chelation + pH balance FPJ / Fish Emulsion 30 ml → Organic enzyme booster Result: clean amber mix, mild and balanced. I’ll let this version run for a week before adding anything. 👀👀👀👀👀👀 Observations and changes 👀👀👀👀👀👀 27.10.25 VW27 noticed some min burnt tips so I decreased Calcium Nitrate 45 to → 40g, decided to add two more elements micros and Epsom salts just to make sure they got everything, Fetrilon Combi 1 (Micros): 0.5 g, Epsom salts: 8 g 28.10.25 VW27 she seems devoid of any deficiencies, seems ready for the flip to 12/12 02.11.25 VW27 girl is looking good so I decided to stop making daily videos and do a standard once a week update. 09.11.25 aVW28 7 days since flip,stretch in full swing, first pistils showing, leaf color deep and healthy. Slight tip burn early week → gone after pH stabilized.

Amazing buds are starting the rippening phase, im really impressed with the structure of this plant with just 3 weeks of veg. Gonna introduce the GHE Ripen in the nutrition in 2 days, if everything goes as i expect ill start flushing in 12 days.

I gotta say this seed is very strong once the roots are established and healthy I’ve been hurting her since day 1 still she fought back like a true legend. But hey enough hurting her time to give her 2 weeks of getting fat. 😂💚

All and all good, lots more growth. Flip the switch soon and see how much more they stretch in flower. Definitely has monster genes. Some fan leaves are bigger than a hand span. Watering sensitive but makes a quick recovery of over/under watered. Not long left now, happy growing peeps 💚🌿🌱

The little one grows well and in good health, it is only a little smaller than what we imagined and other little sisters who are in the same conditions. We tried an inexperienced hst on a side branch to see what happens. We spray neem solution + potassium soap every 3 days for protection and lord grow nourishing foliar every 15 days for leaf nutrition and co2 protection.

Very slow this week until I realised the timer was switching on for 15 minutes an hour into darkness, this has put me a couple of weeks behind schedule, should of been flushing for harvest this week instead I’ve been flushing for a couple of days to rid of nutrient lock, after 3 days of water I added just the pk and they’ve bounced back and the buds getting chunkier they’ve also needed a lot of defoliation throughout the week, 2 of the ladies are more a glue pheno in size, structure and a smell of pine, the other is a real chunky blueberry, hopefully I’ll get to the end with no more problems

Time for the "Party Weed", the Booshberry. It's a cross of orange push pop and method OG. nicknamed the party weed due to all the colors in the finished flower. Was told it has some different growths with plants reaching WAY out there, it's a light eater, doesn't stretch much, and stinks the whole way through. I can tell ya I smell this little fucker already lol. Day 1- Starting this one off on a low dose of nutes while it settles in its new home. 5gal water 4mL FloraMicro 4mL FloraGrow 4mL FloraBloom RES totals - 310ppm @5.8 Day 2- little LST to start spreading it out some. Need more gardening wire ASAP to keep the shoots low for now. Trimmed the lower node off, and placed it in some mineral rich water under a light and dome to keep the strain going in my tent. Day 3- lil more LST using silicon coated small electronics wire cause I'm broke asf 🤣🤣. Really haven't had the time to get out and get some tbh.. it's like five bucks at lowes. Too busy cooking coke/lsd on Eclipse 🤣. Day 4- adjust LST and tied her down some more. So far just ph adjusting the RES and topping off if needed. Couple days and this cut is gonna start blowing up. Already stinks like it's in flower... this is gonna be fun

5/14- Buds are getting fat - some are starting to droop. The Calcium issue is resolved and feeding pH balanced water and not switching with well seems to have helped. Hopefully we can stay stead to harvest. Noticing some light burn so will have to potentially keep an eye on dialing back the lights a bit.
